God gave… giving is costly.. Jesus coming into the world costs something. Jesus death on the Cross would cost Jesus his life and would cause great pain within the Trinity, but Jesus coming and humbling himself to be human is also costly. God chooses to be limited, to submit to the life as a created one rather than the creator… he does that not just to die for us, he does that to first be with us, be one of us. … And he shall be called Emmanuel – God with us.
